got an e92 for xmas, 2nd one this month!

To my surprise, my brother got me an E92 as a Christmas present. The problem is several-fold: it's space gray just like the one I picked up 12/2, it has navigation which I don't want, the left mirror broke off, and I think it's a 328 because the motor looks a bit different from mine. Also, there is only a dual-tipped muffler on the left side.

I guess I'll keep it, it's a nice present. Oh, did I mention it's 1:18 scale and made by Kyosho?

I'll just drive the 335 and keep it in the garage. With the new 328, I'll probably keep it on my desk in the office (after all it is 1/18 and made by Kyosho = die cast model).

My brother is tough, he wouldn't throw-in the floor mats so now I have to try to buy some on eBay!

There are all kinds of problems with a 1:18 car--the guy told me the car is too small to make it worth his while to do the 3M clear bra, and also Geico can't quote me on the insurance, the supervisor has to look into it. They said it makes no sense that I can't find the VIN and I plan on driving it 0 miles per year!

This car is starting to be a headache--they've got a snow tire package available but the 1:18 pressure monitors are on backorder. I also can't get my BMW Miniature Assist activated. It automatically calls a pager or cell phone if anyone steps on the vehicle!
